Re: Mike Jones

Let me just be the first to say, thanks for Nebraska 1999, one of the most exciting TD receptions in Longhorns history. Thanks also for a number of other clutch catches and for all of your hard work and dedication on the 40 Acres.

HOOK EM, Mike!!

I'd like to thank Mike for stepping up big time in 2000 when all our other TEs went down...

Re: Mike Jones

Who can ever forget Mike rumbling into the northwest corner of the endzone against Nebraska in 1999? That play will always be remembered. Thanks for it, Mike.
And thanks for everything else. Not many people got to see it last year against Colorado, but you were a reception machine in that game. It was sweet.

Re: Mike Jones

Mike,
I enjoyed meeting you several times over the last few years. In addition to the big plays everyone talks about I would like to say how much I enjoyed watching your hustle on punt protection and blocking assignments. I never saw your man get the best of you.

Good Luck with your future. "The Eyes of Texas are upon you."

Re: Mike Jones

Mike,

There is no way to thank you enough for the rumble to the endzone against the Huskers. My roommate is a Husker fan and she hates that play. There was plenty of Mike Jones is your Daddy comments from me and my friends towards the roommate that night.

Thanks for all that you have done and all that you have given to the Longhorn Faithful!

They can never take away the Nebraska 1999 catch. Still the best game I've ever seen in person. Thanks.

Re: Mike Jones

Mike, a lot of people remember the one play against Nebraska. That was great indeed. I saw your last high school game against Westlake in San Marcos five years ago. That was a game to remember. Westlake had Drew Brees, Brett Robin, Seth McKinney, and Marshall had you. That was the closest game Westlake had all year. You and your teammates were tough. You brought that toughness with you over to the University and used as a foundation for success. Congratulations on being a senior and best of luck to you in the future.

Re: Mike Jones

Mike,

Thanks for your wonderful contributions to the football program over these past few years. Yes, the Nebraska game is the first thing I think of when I hear your name, but I also remember a terrific performance against CU. I also remember your injury last year which cost you several more receptions in what was turning into a really solid year. And this year, you seem to be doing whatever you're asked (I'm sure its been the same every year), contributing to the team's success while losing some of the limelight. *Thank you* for everything; it's been fun watching you play on Saturdays. Best of luck in all you do. Hook'em

Mike-

I was sitting in the horseshoe when you scored the winning TD against NU. What a play. I could just see in the way you ran that you would not be denied. Thanks for the memories.

Re: Mike Jones

Mike,

As a UT alum, and an ex-student trainer for the football team, I can say that I am PROUD to have had you and your classmates as part of our legacy. You gentlemen have been class acts on the field, but even more importantly...off the field as well.

I have experienced that after graduation...the winds that blow carry everyone in so many different directions, BUT, every fall you will again find yourself amongst family, living and dying with every snap, tackle, kick and whistle... be it from the 24th row in DKR or from a Satellite dish in another state. You'll love coming back and seeing everyone again....and hoping the new kids are as classy and hard working as you guys were....and so the baton passes again.

Thank you for choosing us.


God Bless & Hookem,
The Morgan family

Re: Mike Jones

Thanks so much for all that you have done to resurrect Texas football. Without looking, I'm sure we'd have to go back 20+ years to find a class that leaves with a better overall record.

During your 5 years here, you have done nothing but represent the school we all love with class and honor. . . THANKS!

Add me to the collection of people who are still drooling over your TD against the Huskers in 1999. You just weren't gonna be denied and that's the kind of player you were. Thanks for choosing Texas.
